Voting should not require electricity.
Think about that.....knock out the power and you could disenfranchise voters by the hundreds.

Paper ballots marked with a pen require no electricity and the only excuse for someone not being able to vote would be lack of a ballot.

2. I'm with you 100%


1) No more electronic GLITCHES.
2) No more humidity problems.
3) No technical assistance needed to operate.
4) No problem if there is a power failure.
5) No special rooms for storing after an election.
6) Completely transparent, reusable multi-purpose stackable ballot box.

4. Exactly.
They've taken a simple process and complicated (and corrupted) the shit out of it.

Voting should be done, with pens, on paper ballots.
Counting should be done by hand.

But, that reduces the potential for massive thefts, and it doesn't provide a way to funnel billions to the cabal's cronies.
